let\'s just get to the point...since the test barns and specifically the NY situation is really under scrutiny...tell me again why he is so cold?  no respnses on speculation, lets\' get to it...facts & figures please.

I dont have any \"facts or figures\". Just implications and deductions.

That said, the typical Pletcher horse starts out running. Reaches a high performance figure relatively early and improves upon that figure usually do to maturity as opposed to continual forging improvement. That is the Drugs on profile.

Obviously Pletcher didn\'t eclipse guys overnight like Lukas and Shug. He only got good when he teamed with Steve Allday.

He still seems to be doing alright in lesser races. Its stakes recently where he\'s tailed and I think its due to the Stakes being overseen more carefully, a la the \"surprise\" Derby blood test.

Obviously, hes a chemistry on trainer. Chemistry off will not be good for him.

Chuckles,

Are you sure Dr Allday still works for Pletchers Stables?

I\'d check your sources first.

   Why let the facts get in the way of a good rant, especially when it concerns
TAP, everybody\'s favorite pinata.

   Speaking of TAP, I think if CQ is sound he would have a decent chance on
Saturday.

If Allday is not still administering the Pletcher Needles I\'m not privy to his replacement.

If Allday has vacated the Pletcher Barn the \"When\" might explain the \"why\". Pletcher did get convicted of a positive recently.

The Allday issue reminds me of the Bush Spying Program defense:

\"Well, even if we did try to get a morphine intoxicated Ashcroft to sign off on warrantless Domestic Spying from his hospitial bed and we did spy without warrants, it Machts Nicht, because since then we have a fully authorized Spying program overseen by warrant issuing magistrates.\"

Better Now Makes Better then. Its all about timing!

Obviously they dont list Vet of record in the program. Its long past time that they began doing so.

As far as Circular Quay being a factor in the Belmont, his Daddy was more horse than he is and Daddy couldn\'t crack this year\'s Belmont Trifecta if it was eggs.
